2015 Campaign

Campaigning for the 2015 AZAB Race & Rolex Fastnet Race

Under pressure!

With a goatee beard developing under her bow, it was definitely time for a lift & scrub. Even the saildrive was covered in crustaceans. This year seems particularly bad for marine growth - the combination of warm sea with rain washing the fertilisers and associated spores off the fields perhaps.

Given that I'll be racing against Jangada this weekend I'm beginning to think I should have left the pressure wash until next week.

Might have to rethink the strategy and return to dry sailing next year.
